DVD - Flatpicking Fiddle Tunes, Reels, Rags & Hoedowns

Old-time fiddle tunes are the bedrock upon which acoustic guitar flatpicking is built. Eric Thompson shares seven of his favorites, guiding you slowly, line by line through classics like "Texas Gals," "Fish in the Millpond," "Miller's Reel," "East Tennessee Blues," and "Fall of Richmond." You'll build your repertoire and hone your technique, exploring finger patterns in six different keys which are all clearly shown in split-screen close-ups.
